PURPOSE: To describe a custom bifurcated stent-graft for possible treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). MATERIALS AND METHODS: Five male patients (mean age, 76 +/- 6 years), who had AAA (mean diameter, 4.7 +/- 0.4 cm) and who were considered to be at high risk for conventional surgery, were treated with a custom modular bifurcated stent-graft constructed with bifurcated 24-mm x 12-mm (upper body diameter x iliac limb diameter) Cooley Veri-Soft Woven polyester grafts and Gianturco-R?sch Z stents. The stent-graft body was delivered through 20-22-F sheaths, and the contralateral iliac limb was delivered through a 16-F sheath by means of surgical exposure of the common femoral arteries. A flared distal limb extender (12 mm to 14 mm) was created for one patient to accommodate a large common iliac artery. RESULTS: Stent-grafts were successfully deployed without complications in all five patients. There were no proximal or distal leaks. A lumbar-to-inferior mesenteric artery leak was seen in one patient at 24 hours. At 6-month follow-up, all devices were intact, with complete exclusion and shrinkage of the aneurysm in four of five patients. Aneurysm size remained stable in the one patient with a lumbar-to-inferior mesenteric artery leak. CONCLUSION: A custom, bifurcated stent-graft was utilized for endovascular treatment of AAA. Long-term follow-up is necessary for the device. 相似文献

PURPOSE: The aim of the study was to evaluate quantitatively the main morphological changes of the abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA)-endograft (EG) complex following endovascular repair of infrarenal AAA and to evaluate the functional consequences of these changes in terms of rate of complications (endoleaks and thrombosis). We also assessed whether these morphological and functional changes were related to the size of the AAA and to the type of EG used. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Eighty-five patients (M/F=82/3; mean age at time of operation 70.5+/-3.5 years, range 49.9-89.6 years) who underwent endovascular treatment of infrarenal AAA between April 1997 and October 2004 with a follow-up of at least 1 month were considered. All images of 408 preoperative and postoperative computed tomography (CT) studies were reviewed. Statistical analysis was performed with log-rank test on the 85 patients grouped according to AAA diameter <50 mm or < or =50 mm, and on 75 patients grouped according to EG device used (AneuRx, Talent or Excluder). RESULTS: Morphological and dimensional changes involved the diameter (six cases) and length (14 cases) of AAA proximal neck, diameter (36 cases) and length (51 cases) of the aneurysm sac and shape of the stent-graft (47 cases). The prevalence of endoleaks was 37.6% whereas endoluminal thrombosis was observed in 27.1% of patients. AAA growth was significantly correlated (p=0.002) with the preprocedural diameter of the aneurysm sac whereas shrinkage was significantly correlated (p=0.0005) with the EG used. CONCLUSIONS: AAA growth was correlated with the diameter of the aneurysm sac while shrinkage was correlated with the EG used. During follow-up after endovascular repair, patients require careful evaluation of the morphological and dimensional features of the AAA and EG to promptly identify any changes that can anticipate major complications and even conversion to conventional surgery. 相似文献

Endoleaks are defined as persistent perfusion of an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) after endovascular stent-graft deployment. The authors describe their experience treating six endoleaks with the liquid embolic agent Onyx (ethylene-vinyl-alcohol copolymer). Complete endoleak occlusion was achieved in five of six cases. Follow-up imaging has demonstrated decreased aneurysm diameter in all patients 7-29 weeks (mean = 19.2 weeks) after treatment. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: The aim of our retrospective study was to review our single-center experience with aortic abdominal aneurysm (AAA) repair retrospectively. MATERIAL AND METHODS: From 1995 to 2005, 70 consecutive patients affected by AAA were treated by endovascular stent-graft repair. Mean follow-up was 23.9 months. Follow-up investigations were performed at 6 and 12 months and yearly thereafter. Five different stent-graft designs were compared to each other. Primary technical success (PTS), assisted primary technical success (APTS), primary clinical success (PCS) and secondary clinical success (SCS) were evaluated. RESULTS: All over PTS was achieved in 94.3%, APTS in 97.1%, PCS in 61.4%, APCS in 64.3% and SCS in 70%. There were 3 type I endoleaks, 25 type II endoleaks, 4 type III endoleaks, 8 limb problems, 5 conversions to open surgery, 10 aneurysm sac expansions and 14 device migrations. Patients with newer generation devices showed better results than patients with first generation prosthesis. In addition results were better for grafts with suprarenal fixation (versus infrarenal fixation) and grafts with barbs and hooks (versus grafts without barbs and hooks). Patients with bad anatomic preconditions showed a higher complication rate. CONCLUSION: Contrary to first generation products, new stent-graft designs show acceptable technical and clinical results in endovascular AAA aneurysm repair. However, this therapy still should be reserved only for patients with significant comorbities and suitable anatomic conditions. 相似文献

Purpose
Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) accompanied by common iliac artery (CIA) aneurysms requires a more demanding procedure owing to the difficulties in obtaining an adequate distal landing zone for the stent-graft limb(s), a potential site of endoleak. The “sandwich technique” is a procedure to increase EVAR feasibility in the setting of adverse or challenging CIA anatomy. Its main advantages include no restrictions in terms of CIA diameter or length or internal iliac artery (IIA) diameter, no need to wait for a specific stent-graft. Our purpose is to describe our single-center experience and one year follow-up results of this new procedure.Materials and Methods
From April 2009 to June 2010, the sandwich technique was performed in our institution in 7 patients treated for AAA and unilateral CIA aneurysms (n. 5) or bilateral CIA aneurysms (n. 2). Inclusion criteria were the presence of unilateral or bilateral CIA aneurysm (independently from its diameter), IIA artery measuring up to 9?mm in its maximum diameter, not dilatation of IIA and EIA.Results
The mean follow-up length was 15?months (range: 14–20 months). All stent-implanted iliac branches remained patent on 1?year follow-up and IIA flow was preserved. None of the patients had symptoms of pelvic ischemia. CT scan follow-up showed aneurysm shrinkage in five patients, without any sign of endoleaks in all cases.Conclusions
In selected cases, the “sandwich technique” showed good outcomes confirming to be a safe and easy to perform way to overcome anatomical constraints and expanding the limits of EVAR. 相似文献7.

Aortocaval fistula (ACF) is a rare complication of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). We report the endovascular repair of an
AAA rupture into the inferior vena cava. A 78-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital for acute hypotension. She presented
with a pulsatile abdominal mass and became rapidly anuric. Abdominal computed tomography (CT) showed an AAA rupture into the
inferior vena cava. The features of the AAA made it suitable for endovascular repair. To prevent pulmonary embolism caused
by the presence of sac thrombosis near the vena cava lumen, a temporary vena cava filter was deployed before the procedure.
A bifurcated stent-graft was placed with the patient under local anaesthesia, and the AAA was successfully treated. A transient
type II endoleak was detected on CT 3 days after endograft placement. At routine follow-up 6 and 12 months after the procedure,
the patient was in good clinical condition, and the type II endoleak had sealed completely. Endovascular treatment offers
an attractive therapeutic alternative to open repair in case of ACF; however, only small numbers of patients have been treated,
and long-term follow-up interval is lacking. 相似文献

Purpose To retrospectively assess the feasibility, safety, and clinical mid-term outcome of patients undergoing carotid artery stenting
with stent-grafts.
Methods Over a 4 year period stent-grafts were used in the endovascular treatment of symptomatic internal carotid artery stenosis
in 12 patients (2 women, 10 men, aged 47–83 (mean 64) years). Protection devices were not used. Possible microembolic complications
were evaluated by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examinations of the brain before and the day after the procedure in all
patients. Mean follow-up was 22 months (range 1–42 months), by Doppler ultrasonography and conventional angiography as well
as clinical examination.
Results The technical success rate was 100%. A total of 13 coronary stent-grafts were used. The mean stenosis rate (in terms of diameter)
was 85% and the mean length of stent-grafts used was 20.9 mm. The mean diameter to which the stent-grafts were dilated was
4.66 mm. In-hospital complications occurred in 1 patient who suffered a minor femoral access hematoma that did not require
transfusion or surgical decompression. Post-stenting diffusion-weighted MRI revealed several ipsilateral silent microemboli
in only 1 case, which was completely asymptomatic. Two patients had a major stroke after 2 years of follow-up. Restenosis
was found in 2 patients who underwent successful balloon dilatation followed by placement of a self-expandable bare stent
within the stent-grafts.
Conclusions Stent-grafts may prevent microembolic complications during stenting of atherosclerotic carotid lesions in selected cases,
offering immediate exclusion of the atherosclerotic lesion from the circulation by pressing the plaque against the vessel
wall. Comparative, randomized studies in larger series of patients are needed with carotid-dedicated stent-graft designs. 相似文献

In this prospective study we examined whether dilated common iliac arteries (CIAs) can provide a safe distal seal in endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) with the use of bifurcated stent grafts with large diameter limbs. Sixteen patients with 26 dilated CIAs with a diameter of 6 mm who were offered EVAR using stent grafts with large diameter limbs were included in the study (Group A). Forty-two patients who also underwent EVAR without iliac dilatation, matched for age, sex and surgical risk were used for comparison (controls-Group B). In group A mean CIA diameter was 18.2 mm (16–28) and mean abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) diameter was 6.87 ± 1.05 cm; mean age was 77.2 ± 4.8 yrs (67–81). Mean follow-up was 33.6 months (2.8 yrs). CIA diameter changes and development of endoleaks were assessed by CT angiography (CTA). Overall iliac dilatation was present in 16/58 of our patients (27.6%). In 10 patients dilatation was bilateral (17.3%). Partial or complete flow to the internal iliac artery (IIA) territories was preserved in all patients post-EVAR. On follow-up, stable caliber of the dilated CIAs was observed in 21 patients (84%), enlargement of 1mm in 3 (16%), and failure of the distal attachment in 1 (6.2%). Compared to the control group there was no statistical significance in the incidence of complications. Dilated common iliac arteries provide a safe distal seal in patients who have undergone EVAR, thus obviating the need for additional endovascular procedures and sparing flow in the IIA vascular bed. 相似文献

PURPOSE: To investigate efficacy of stent-graft repair for the treatment of patients with chronic aortic dissection. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Fifteen patients with chronic aortic dissection were treated with endovascular stent-grafts. Entry tears were located in the descending thoracic aorta in all patients. The mean maximum diameter of the descending thoracic aorta was 47 mm +/- 8. The mean diameter of the true lumen at the same level was 20 mm +/- 5. The mean interval between diagnosis and stent-graft procedure was 32 months +/- 91. Stent-grafts were fabricated from expanded polytetrafluoroethylene and Z-stents. RESULTS: Stent-grafts were placed successfully in all patients. Two stent-grafts were required in one patient. Entry closure and thrombosis of the false lumen of the descending thoracic aorta were also achieved in all patients. No procedure-related complications were observed except for postimplantation syndrome, including fever and leukocytosis. The diameter of the true lumen was significantly increased (mean, 31 mm +/- 6) at the level of the descending thoracic aorta (P <.01) and the diameter of the aorta was significantly decreased (mean, 44 mm +/- 8) at the same level (P <.01). There were no deaths and no instances of aortic rupture during the subsequent average follow-up period of 24 months. Secondary stent-graft procedures were required to treat the abdominal component of dissection during follow-up in one patient. CONCLUSIONS: Stent-graft repair of chronic aortic dissection is a safe and effective method and may be an alternative to surgical graft replacement in selected patients. However, further evaluation is mandatory before this method is widely employed. 相似文献

PURPOSE: To retrospectively assess the in-hospital and 1-year follow-up costs of endovascular aneurysm repair and conventional open surgery in patients with acute infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) by using a resource-use approach. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Institutional Review Board approval was obtained, and informed consent was waived. In-hospital costs for all consecutive patients (61 men, six women; mean age, 72.0 years) who underwent endovascular repair (n = 32) or open surgery (n = 35) for acute infrarenal AAA from January 1, 2001, to December 31, 2004, were assessed by using a resource-use approach. Patients who did not undergo computed tomography before the procedure were excluded from analysis. One-year follow-up costs were complete for 30 patients who underwent endovascular repair and for 34 patients who underwent open surgery. Costs were assessed from a health care perspective. Mean costs were calculated for each treatment group and were compared by using the Mann-Whitney U test (alpha = .05). The influence of clinical variables on the total in-hospital cost was investigated by using univariate and multivariate analyses. Costs were expressed in euros for the year 2003. RESULTS: Sex, age, and comorbidity did not differ between treatment groups (P > .05). The mean total in-hospital costs were lower for patients who underwent endovascular repair than for those who underwent open surgery (euro20 767 vs euro35 470, respectively; P = .004). The total costs, including those for 1-year follow-up, were euro23 588 for patients who underwent endovascular repair and euro36 448 for those who underwent open surgery (P = .05). The results of multivariate analysis indicated that complications had a significant influence on total in-hospital cost; patients who had complications incurred total in-hospital costs that were 2.27 times higher than those for patients who had no complications. CONCLUSION: Total in-hospital costs and total overall costs, which included 1-year follow-up costs, were lower in patients with acute AAA who underwent endovascular repair than in those who underwent open surgery. 相似文献

PURPOSE: Evaluation of 6-year results of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) treatment by Ella stent-grafts with regard to safety and effectivity in relation to morphology of the aneurysm. METHODS: From a group of 172 patients with AAA, in whom elective endovascular treatment was considered, 120 of them (69.8%) were found to be suitable for this type of therapy. The bifurcated type of stent-graft was implanted in 97 patients, uniiliacal type in 19 patients and only four patients were found to be suitable for tubular type of stent-graft. Additional necessary procedures (internal iliac artery occlusion or contralateral common iliac artery occlusion in a group of patients with uniiliacal type of stent-graft) were performed surgically during the stent-graft implantation. CT and US controls were performed at 3, 6 and 12 months after implantation, later every 12 months. RESULTS: Primary technical success was achieved in 109 of the 120 patients (91%). Primary endoleak was recorded in 11 patients (primary endoleak type Ia in seven patients, type Ib in three patients and type IIIa in one patient). Assisted technical success after reintervention or spontaneous seal was 98.3%. Surgical conversion was indicated in two patients (1.7%). Perioperative mortality rate was 3.3%. Total average follow-up period was 20.7 months (range from 2 to 60 months). In nine patients (7.5%) secondary endoleak type II was found at control CT or US, in three patients partial thrombosis of the stent-graft was found. There was no aneurysm rupture during follow-up. CONCLUSION: Treatment of AAA with Ella stent-graft system is effective and safe. Bifurcated stent-graft is the most frequently used type. Uniiliacal type of stent-graft is used by us only in cases of complicated morphology. 相似文献

PURPOSE: Device migration (DM) may cause late failure after endovascular aortic aneurysm repair (EVAR). Computed tomography (CT) scans following EVAR were reviewed to establish the frequency of DM and whether it can be predicted. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Fifty-five patients underwent EVAR with a Talent stent-graft with suprarenal fixation. CT with a fixed protocol was performed at regular intervals. Patient demographics, risk factors, procedure details, and follow-up events were reviewed. Two observers, blinded to each other, reviewed axial images and mutliplanar reformats of the CT scans. DM was defined as a change of > or = 10 mm in the distance between a reference vessel (celiac axis/superior mesenteric artery) and the proximal device. Follow-up was performed for a minimum of 2 years (mean, 3 years; range, 2-5 years). RESULTS: DM was detected in six of 38 patients (15.8%) by 2 years. There were no new cases of migration in the 19 patients at 3 years but one new case in the six patients at 4 years (16.6%). Mean migration over 2 years was 4.8 mm +/- 4.2 mm. One patient with DM developed a type I endoleak that required reintervention. This patient developed a further endoleak and died following surgery for rupture. Top neck enlargement was the only predictive factor identified, present in 71% of patients with DM (P = .056). CONCLUSION: DM occurred in a small proportion of patients; closer follow-up intervals may be necessary in patients with short/enlarging proximal necks. 相似文献

PURPOSE: Perigraft flow--flow outside the graft lumen but contained within the abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA)--is a potential complication after endovascular repair of AAA. Such flow may permit AAA growth and rupture. The purpose of this study is to evaluate with computed tomography (CT) the rate of spontaneous closure of perigraft flow and the effect of persistent flow on AAA diameter. MATERIALS AND METHODS: During a 30-month period, the authors evaluated all CT scans in 50 patients who underwent AAA repair using the Ancure endograft system. CT was performed at discharge, 6, 12, and 24 months, and at 3 months if there was perigraft flow at discharge. Scans were reviewed for the presence, size, and location of perigraft flow, and measurement of AAA diameter. Transcatheter embolization was performed on those patients with persistent leak at 6 months. RESULTS: Sixteen (32%) of 50 patients demonstrated perigraft flow on CT performed within 72 hours of placement. Resolution of perigraft flow by 6 months was found in nine (56%) of the 16 patients, in whom AAA size had decreased in five, had increased in none, and was unchanged in four. Seven patients had persistent leaks at 6-month CT; AAA size had decreased in one, had increased in one, and was unchanged in five. In 34 patients without leaks, AAA size had decreased in nine, had increased in one, and was unchanged on 24. There was no statistically significant difference for the relationship between resolution or persistence of perigraft flow and subsequent course of AAA diameter (P = .16). CONCLUSIONS: Although perigraft flow is frequently seen (32%) early after repair of AAA with the Ancure system, spontaneous resolution by 6 months occurs in 56% of cases. AAA size decreased in a larger percentage of patients in whom perigraft leak was absent or resolved by 6 months compared with those in whom perigraft leak persisted at 6 months. 相似文献

Purpose: To investigate the incidence, significance, and mechanism of stent-graft distortion after endovascular repair (EVR) of abdominal
aortic aneurysm.
Methods: EVR of abdominal aortic aneurysm was performed in 51 cases (49 modular, bifurcated; 2 tube). Thirty-two patients were followed
for 6 or more months and had equivalent baseline and follow-up images which could be used to determine changes in graft configuration.
Sac dimensions were measured using computed tomographic (CT) images and graft-related complications were recorded.
Results: Amongst 32 patients evaluated on follow-up, there was graft distortion in 24. Distorted grafts were significantly (p= 0.002) associated with sac diameter reduction (mean 5 mm) and sac length reduction (mean 8.1 mm). All graft-related complications
occurred in the limbs of eight distorted grafts, with a mean reduction of sac length in this group of 7.8 mm on reformatted
CT images.
Conclusion: There was a highly significant association between graft distortion and limb complications, and reduced sac dimensions. 相似文献

Endovascular treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysms: a review 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a relatively common disease among the elderly population and may be present in up to 5.9% of the population aged 80 years. Abdominal aortic aneurysm more than 5 cm in diameter are more prone to rupture, with a significant mortality rate. Conventional surgical treatment is quite effective in the lower surgical risk population; however, in the population with a higher risk level the mortality and morbidity significantly increase. The development of less invasive techniques to treat AAA derived from the necessity to reduce the morbidity and mortality. The development of the endovascular endoprostheses was a significant landmark in the management of those patients with AAA, particularly the ones with increased risk. Although the stent-graft technology is still in its infancy, a large amount of information is available and an attempt to summarize this experience is presented herein. An extensive review of the stent-graft technology is presented, including variations in design and classification of the several systems available. Technical aspects of the use of endovascular prostheses are presented, as well as the most recent outcome information available. The problems of endoleaks is discussed and the techniques for treatment and outcomes presented. Finally, a summary of specific information on most of the devices available is presented. 相似文献

PURPOSE: To evaluate the usefulness of thoracic computed tomography (CT) after placement of an endovascular stent-graft for the treatment of descending thoracic aortic aneurysm. MATERIALS AND METHODS: From 1992 to 1996, 85 patients with thoracic aortic aneurysm underwent stent-graft placement. In 63 patients, thoracic CT scans were obtained both before and within 10 days after placement. The CT findings were retrospectively studied, and their clinical effect analyzed. In 20 of 63 patients, long-term follow-up CT findings were also evaluated. RESULTS: After stent-graft placement in the 63 patients, CT demonstrated an increase in pleural effusion in 46 (73%), periaortic changes in 21 (33%), perigraft leak in 13 (21%), atelectasis in six (10%), mural thrombus within the stent-graft in two (3%), and new aortic dissection in one (2%). The mean maximum diameter of the aneurysm was 58.8 mm before and 60.0 mm after stent-graft insertion. Sixty-two (98%) patients were successfully treated until discharge. Interventional procedures were performed to eliminate the leakage into the aneurysm sac in 10 patients with perigraft flow depicted at CT. Other complications were managed conservatively. CONCLUSION: Thoracic CT is useful in the treatment of patients after stent-graft insertion for the management of descending thoracic aortic aneurysm. 相似文献

In order to seek for the factors to suggest a risk of rupture of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA), we measured the largest diameter of AAA and the thickness of intra-luminal thrombus on CT in 72 patients. The mean aneurysmal size was 64 mm in diameter in 9 patients with ruptured aneurysm and 61 mm in diameter in 63 patients with non-ruptured aneurysm respectively (p less than 0.90). The rupture of AAA was seen in 3 of 30 patients with AAA of the small size (less than 50 mm in diameter), in 3 of 16 patients with AAA of the intermediate size (51-66 mm in diameter) and in 3 of 26 patients with AAA of the large size (more than 70 mm in diameter), respectively. The mean intra-luminal thrombus was 9 mm in 9 patients with ruptured aneurysm and 19 mm in thickness in 63 patients with non-ruptured aneurysm respectively (p = 0.05). We concluded from the above results that the aneurysmal size was not important, but the thickness of intra-luminal thrombus was useful for suggestion of a risk of rupture of AAA. 相似文献
